Listen "The Iron Fortress of One: Six Signs Your Self-Reliance Is Actually Hyperindependence and a Trauma Response"
Episode Synopsis
Explains hyperindependence as a coping mechanism that often develops after traumatic experiences. It is marked by an intense reluctance to seek or accept help due to fear of vulnerability and potential disappointment. Signs of hyperindependence include difficulty expressing emotions, neglecting personal needs that can lead to burnout, and a fear of intimacy. Those affected often feel a constant need for control, seeing self-reliance as the only protection against future pain. Recognizing these patterns is an important first step toward healing and seeking support.Produced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
